Danish Pastry guinea pigs needed

HaRuMaN:

Figured out the length of a line from the center of the box to the corner, call it A:

A = sqrt(5^2 + 5^2) = 7.0711

Subtract 5 for the radius leaving:

2.0711, which is half the hypotenuse of the triangle you need.

And, since it is a right triangle, with a = b, you then can use

2 * 2.0711 = sqrt(2 * a ^ 2)

which simplifies to

(2 * 2.0711) ^ 2 = 2  * a ^ 2

and so on...

knave:

I just cheated and used a online pythagorean calculator...



Cakemeister:

The exact answer is 10-5*sqrt(2).

Or just 3 inches.

Hoopz:

Good to see you moving forward.  Some questions/ideas/suggestions I had:

-Offer a rewards type of club.  10th pastry ordered has free shipping or something.
-Special orders or combos available?  Raspberry and blackberry (ie razzleberry) or other combos allowed?  I doubt one-off orders are that big but if someone wanted olallieberry or something like that, is that an option?

I think the price is fair but personally, the shipping makes it more difficult to order often.

I think that I'll have a danish be the prize for the winner of the 2012 NFL pick em.  Fins fans not eligible of course.   ;D
